The Length Rite device is based on measuring wheels that will rotate when making
contact with the wire/cable/rope etc. This rotation is converted into a read-out of the measured length. On most models, an encoder is used for this conversion to provide an accuracy of
+/- 0.05%. A typical problem with accurate measurement is slippage between the measuring wheels and the cable. To ensure minimal slippage, the Length Rite system uses two belt and pulleys
to sandwich the cable as it pass along. This method maximize surface contact and provide a highly accurate reading. This setup also allows the Length Rite to measure accurately on cables
moving at speeds up to 3000 feet / min.
Taymer's Advantages:
Length Measurement Accuracy
Taymer's Length Rite series of products have a cable length measurement accuracy of +/- 0.05% (with the exception of the
LR100). Our 30 years of experience in wire length measuring devices enabled us to develop mechanical and electronic technology to deliver this industry leading length measuring accuracy.
Pneumatic Raise and Lower
The Length Rite utilizes a pneumatic system to raise and lower the upper assembly. This feature ensures that exactly the
same pressure is applied to your product at all times, practically eliminating slippage and protecting your product from excess pressure.
Bi-directional Counting
In rewind lines and in certain manufacturing lines, pipe and cable length measuring has to include flexibility to subtract movement in the opposite direction
to determine an accurate length measurement. Taymer's Cable Length Measurement technology is well suited for this requirement and back and forth movement does not impact the
machines' overall length measurement accuracy of 0.05%.
Computer Integration
The Length Rite is able to integrate to a computer to store data into a database. This feature is ideal for
tracking length measurements and make use of the data - such as inventory control, product details, and line efficiency.
